Howard didn't get booked. At least he might relax a bit now and get stuck in a bit more. Can't help thinking this last couple of matches hes looked a bit nervous in the tackle.
Relax a bit? He was far too relaxed today. Rarely saw the ball and just like Brian Laws predicted, seemed to be looking to the Chelsea game.
I think that today he did not go anywhere near a tackle because the booking that would mean him missing the Chelsea game was on his mind. I think that is a bit piss poor, although its probably only human nature - as a pro he should not let it affect him playing his game.
but we play Blackpool tueday...what if he gets booked then...or will that be too late to affect it. the chelsea game I mean
RE: Relax a bit? Know what you mean - will be glad when the FA cups over and the trophy is nestled in the oakwell trophy cabinet!
Too Many Were Thinking About The Chelski Game Obviously the players will deny it, but it was too bleeding obvious.
If he gets booked on Tuesday Suspension will start from next Tuesday. Not sure about sending offs as to whether they're instant of if there's also a weeks delay.
You get your suspension 7 days after receiving your 5th/10th booking So he'll still play the Chelsea game even if he gets booked at Blackpool
RE: but we play Blackpool tueday...what if he gets booked then...or will that be too late to affect too late to affect the Cheslea game. I think the ban comes into force 7 days after the yellow card.
